I’m having some problems with a residential computer that is running Ubuntu 9.10
It has worked fine for years. Client moved to a new home and has Comcast cable internet.
A couple of Comcast techs got him up and running after some head scratching.
It worked fine for a couple weeks but now he can’t connect to the internet.

I’ve tried turning the power and and off on the modem.
I’ve checked the cable connection between the modem and the computer.
I’m connected through an ethernet cable.

The computer says that a successful network connection is established but no browsers will work.
I’ve tried Firefox and Opera. Also I get an error when I attempt to download updates.

Any ideas for where I should start troubleshooting this problem?

After a good while I finally got Ubuntu 11.04 to display on this screen except I cannot see my lower panel and part of upper panel is off the visible area. I’m kind of memory challenged from a TBI.
My video card is a Gforce 5200FX and the only resolution available in Monitor preferences is 1280X720 and the T.V.is listed as a 32″ Panasonic. I do not believe that I have have drivers installed for the card but will be trying that now. I’m not running Unity and do not foresee using it in the future — wutt a mess that iz!!!
Well driver installed I have to reboot not unlike Wimbloz so off I go…Well I’m back and drivers gave me some different settings to confuse me with and none of them worked. The more I toyed with it the wackier the the screen out put got and it seemed like I have no control over the Panasonic output. Both panels are not visible on the 50″ Panny now… Thanx for any input!%:)
My suspicions are poor or failing video card or inept user.

Introduction from Ubuntu Linux

Due to heavy rains my connection slowed down. Did this : Software sources–Ubuntu Software–Download from other–select best server. Tests done, server selected, reloaded.

The Problem : Update manager shows the same list of applications I have already installed / updated from my previous server.

It does not make any sense to reinstall all the applications just because I chose a different server.

This tells that Natty or perhaps all Ubuntu distros do not have or make a list of installed applications and their versions.

This is not the sign of a good Operating System.

Do this and post your experiences here.
